Our contemporary of the Highland RE
corder" comes too late with his objections
to the VINDIcAToR' g High License fig
ures-t that ia too late for practical USE
As there can be no vote of the people on
High License, and as the City Council,
the only body that has the authority to
adopt it. does not favor it, we have con.
cluded to waste no more ink on it at
present, and are now serenely awaiting
the vote on License or ''No License, :"
with the conviction that no matter which
wins, High License would have been bet

Congress has adjourned, but the River
and Harbor bill, in which every State was
so much interested, failed. because the
President refused to sign it. It was furn-
ished to him in time, but because of
his disapproval of some of the
items 1t contained he declined to sign it.
1t is contended by some that it is
legal for him to sign bill after the ad-
5ournment, and that he will do SO in this
case, but it is very unlikely-his name is
Cleveland.

The Republican majority of the U. s.
Senate has made al iuglorious back down.
They rejected the appointment. by Presl-
dent Cleveland, of Mathews, colored, of
New York, as Recorder of Deeds for the
District of Columbia, and made parade of
the excuse that it was done not because of
his color, but for the reason that he was a
nonresident Of the District The Presi-
dent renomlnated Mathews, but he was
again rejected. He then nominated J. M.
Trotter, also colored, of Massachusetts.
In the meantime many prominent coored
members Of the Republican party such as
Prof. Langston, Geo. 7. LOWING, T. T.
Fortune, and others, had published letters
showing that the colored people were not
deceived as to the real reason of Mathews
rejection-his being Negro. The Repub-
Iican Senators could no longer retain their
untenable position and confrmedITrotter' 8
appointment.

from Hongkong and Yokohama, and
brings advices to the effect that on
September 18th the Chinese transport
MayIec was lost in Pescadores and $50
Cinnamon aud five Europeans were
drowned. The British bark Oxford
stranded on Bataan Coast on Septem Der

reported that the steamer Anton en-
countered typhoon during which the
second officer and twenty -four Chinese
were washed overheard and drowned.
fhe typhoon was reported from various
places III the Chinese Sea and nearly
all vessels arriving at Hong Kong re-
ported having suffered more or less.
1t was reported thai Jardine Matte
son & Company have concluded con-
tract ith Vice oV LIE Hung Chang for
the supply of S. wv 900 worth of war
material, principally guns OF the Bange
system.
The latest advices from Corea state
that Sur, anti-fOreign president of the
foreign Office, has been dismissed for
incomPeteDcy and corrupt practices.
Admiral Chandler and officers of the
United States steamship Brooklyn had
an audience With the King recently,
who entertained them at banquet.
The steamship Gaelic also brought
Chinese papers, containing copies OF
an agreement for the establishment
of the China American Bank,
concerning which there has been so
much controversy. The agreement con-
sists of ten articles. The first article
provides that the bank shall be known
as the China American Bank, and that
its capital Will be supervised and safe
guarded by the respective governments
of China and the United States. The
second article provides that the capital
shall consist OF 10 1000, 900 American dol
lars. The third article declares that Van
derbilt will act as president in the United
States. but president will be sent
to China to attend to the business there.
The remaining articles then provide for
the. coinage of silver or gold money
by the bank, and for the issue of
paper money to the amount of one
half the capital of the bank. The con-
cessions heretofore mentioned to the
effect that the bank is to be the
medium of all loans for the construc-
ton of railway and telegraph lines in
the empire, are then cited The agree
ment as published shows that the name
of Vanderbilt was employed in the
negotiations by MitkilleVitz, and that
the United States government was
mentioned as being cognizant Of the
proposed agreement. The Shanghai
Courier, speaking of the concessions,
mentions the Philadelphia syndicate as
having obtained all rights under the
agreement and that the bank would be
esta blished

shots and recovered the horses, but the
Indians got away. McGrew halted to
guard the ranch and wait for twenty

Ascension. While he was waiting the
rain storm obliterated the trail and the
Indians reached Businesses in the Sierra

peNed to pursue another raid at any
